Fast Strong Ruck

 


Decided to  ruck instead of fast walk and it was a good idea. Perhaps the fastest 3 mile Thursday ruck ever. At least in recent memory

Got started an hour earlier than usual ( 11 am) and it started off cool but got warm pretty quickly. No  matter, I felt good from the start and it just kept going. Even with a few stop and shake it out stops I still hit the six laps in a clean 54 min. 

Nine minute laps and 18 min miles!

Much faster than my usual 10 min/mile pace with the ruck!

I had to keep checking the watch  to see if I was keeping the pace and I was. Strongly  too. Just one of those flow moments where the legs were loose and strong, lungs were fine and pace was easy  to keep!

 It must be my stride length that shortens and slows my pace down on days like this because it seems like my leg turnover is fast first two ...
